Slash Horror, BPD and DBT with Zelda Eli

Kate and Michelle are joined by Zelda Eli, author of "BPD: How Horror Genre Became My Borderline Therapy." Zelda openly shares her own history of mental health struggles and how far she's come since finding a therapist who was finally a good fit for her. She reads a chapter of her book aloud and speaks to the benefits that can come from engaging with horror content.
